We also spend some time nostalgia tripping with Star Trek gaming via our mailbag, and offer spoiler-y updates from the pages of IDW's Star Trek: Countdown to Darkness comic series.

No podcast would be complete without a Red Shirt funeral... and our new additions send our death tally to an all-time high. We may even write an Edmund Fitzgerald-type ballad. (No we won't.)

Yes, J.J. Abrams will be directing Star Wars: Episode VII. But what does this announcement mean for his loyal Trekker and Trekkie minions? What happens to Star Trek 3? What will the press tour for Into Darkness be like with everyone asking about that other Star movie? Will J.J. ever take us to the prom again?

For the Season 3 opener of TR3, Scott and Phil are joined by special guest and StarTrek.com columnist Jordan Hoffman to discuss this situation in way too much detail than it really merits! So hold on to your seats, which aren't welded to the floor even though you're on a spaceship that can fly faster than the speed of light…

"What kind of s#!t does this guy think he's pulling?"

And of course, no podcast would be complete without another Red Shirt of the Week. Who is the poor sucker this time? Listen and find out!
